MACROFLORAL ANALYSIS AND AMS RADIOCARBON DATING OF FEATURE FILL FROM SITE 7594-1, CONVERSE COUNTY, WYOMING

Site 7594-1 lies on the crest of a high and narrow ridge 12.2 miles north of Glenrock, in Converse County, east-central Wyoming. Diagnostic artifacts recovered at this lithic scatter indicate Late Archaic (~ 500 BC to AD 1000) occupation (John Greer, personal communication May 5, 2015). Ash fill from the soil probes across the middle of a hearth was submitted for macrofloral analysis and AMS radiocarbon age determination.

7594-1号遗址坐落于怀俄明州中东部康弗斯县格伦罗克以北12.2英里处的高耸狭长山脊峰顶。该石制品散布点出土的特征性遗物显示，此处存在晚古风期（约公元前500年至公元1000年）的人类居住活动（约翰·格里尔，私人通信，2015年5月5日）。针对灶坑中部土壤钻探获取的灰烬充填物，已提交用于大植物遗存分析与加速器质谱（AMS）碳十四年代测定。
